I absolutely agree. I have been to a lot of places in Europe or the States but what keeps impressing me most is Asia. Maybe because I am from Germany so the Asian countries tend to give me the biggest/deepest culture shock. I dont know. I just know for sure that every time I visit one of the beautiful countries in Asia I come back with the best, funniest and most engaging stories and experiences.
